The Police Want to Take Your Pills
It’s time to clean out your medicine cabinet. You can dispose of your old and unwanted prescription drugs on Saturday when the local law-enforcement groups participate in the annual Drug Enforcement Agency Take-Back Day.
The Highland Park Department of Public Safety, the University Park Police Department, and the SMU Police Department will accept unwanted medications from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. You can find other drop-off locations here.
In addition, UP will hold a free community recycling event from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday in the parking lot at Highland Park Middle School. Among the items accepted are many paper products and documents, as well as electronics and computer supplies.
